Why we read it this way (7)
The role is a hybrid (3 days in office, 2 days remote) at the Rockville, MD office — not fully remote.
Angular and React are listed together under 'Familiarity with JavaScript frameworks such as Angular and/or React' — framed as familiarity rather than proficiency, and placed in the required section with a softened qualifier; captured as a single preferred skill with React as an alternative since the 'familiarity with' language meaningfully weakens the gate.
Jenkins and Ansible appear together under 'CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, Ansible, or similar platforms' in the required section — captured as one required skill with Ansible as an alternative.
AWS-specific services called out in the required section (EC2, Fargate, ECS, RDS, OpenSearch, S3) are subcomponents of the AWS platform rather than separately marketed tools; they are folded into the single AWS skill rather than emitted individually.
The posting requires candidates to be able to obtain a US Federal Public Trust Security Clearance, but does not require an active clearance at time of hire — this is not a hard clearance gate under the schema definition.
AWS and Java certifications are listed under Preferred Qualifications and are not captured as skills since they are credentials rather than concrete technologies.
The role blends significant software development (Java microservices, front-end, IaC) with operational/DevOps duties (patching, monitoring, change management), which creates genuine ambiguity between Software Developers and Network/Systems Administrators; Software Developers was chosen as primary because the JD leads with design, develop, and deploy language and the majority of listed skills are development-oriented.
